Kentucky Remains No. 1 In AP, Coaches Polls

At this point, the most exciting thing in college basketball’s polls is the race for the No. 2 team in the country. For the umpteenth time, the No. 1 squad in the country in the AP and Coaches polls are the Kentucky Wildcats. John Calipari’s squad—which is the only undefeated team in Division I at 23-0—was the unanimous No. 1 in the AP Poll and received 31 of a possible 32 first-place votes in the Coaches’ Poll. While the two polls agree on the teams ranked 2-5, there is some variety. The AP thinks the top five is rounded out with Virginia, Gonzaga, Duke and Wisconsin, while the Coaches thinks it is Gonzaga, Virginia, Wisconsin and Duke.
